If you're an iPod® or iPhone® user, Dual's been thinking of you. Not only does their XDMA6510 CD receiver offer built-in controls for your player, but they've included a mount for it too. So, now you can keep your player right where you'd like it while you drive.

Dual also equips the XDMA6510 to handle all your mobile music needs. You can plug any other USB device into the handy front-panel input, or jack in a couple of audio players to the front and rear auxiliary inputs. Discs are covered too — you can play discs loaded with MP3 and WMA files, as well as your store-bought CDs.

Sound shaping is handled competently by bass and treble controls, along with seven preset EQ settings. And if you need more power, you can hook up external amps or a powered sub to the two pairs of preamp outputs. The receiver's sub level control lets you go to town when you want to crank the bass.

Want to keep your car's steering wheel audio controls?
In most vehicles, you can an adapter (not included) to connect your vehicle's steering wheel controls to this Dual stereo. Connect a few wires, then program the adapter for your particular car and the Dual, and you'll retain the convenience of your steering wheel controls.

Note: If you're going to use your iPod with this receiver, be sure to check "Details" for specific iPod model compatibility with this receiver.

Why replace your factory radio?

Two good reasons - sound quality and cool features. A new car stereo offers power that's superior to most factory radios, along with more sophisticated tone controls. And most car stereos offer built-in or optional features that add safety and fun to life in your car, including inputs for your iPod or MP3 player, Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free cell phone calls, satellite radio or HD Radio reception, and connections for building an audio system in your car.

Good Basic CD/Stereo

For basic stuff, this is a pretty good stereo. It was inexpensive, has a detachable face, aux input, usb input, and the ability to send sound to a preamp via rca (I chose not to do this). I would buy it again if I needed another one. Tech help from Crutchfield was great. I'm a little colorblind (just a little) so the wiring diagram which listed the matching wires was almost useless to me. The good folks on the tech line sent me a diagram that showed colors and positions on the actual harness. AFter that, just a little splicing and crimping and I was done.!

Cons:Because there are so many functions, and buttons for those functions (ex. band, tuning, input, etc), sometimes accurately punching the little buttons while driving can be a little difficult. On the other hand, it has so much potential! I'm happy with my purchase.

Good for the money

Nice unit for the money. Bought it for an 18 year old truck so I wasn't looking for an audiophile unit. Sound is good. Installation was straight forward and tech support was helpful. Looks good and had the features I wanted.

Dollar for Dollar the best

I wanted to replace the Factory head unit in a newly acquired Wrangler. Knowing that the doors and top would rarely be on the vehicle, I was leery of putting an expensive head unit in for fear of weather and/or theft. Although I was not familiar with Dual as a name brand, I relied on reviews like this to make my decision. Pound for pound and dollar for dollar this head unit cannot be beat. Powerful with good sound quality at a more than fair price. In fact, I was impressed enough that I ordered the same unit as a replacement for the aged Alpine in my boat! With the installation kit and instructions that Crutchfield sends alog with the purchase, the install could not have gone smoother. Thanks.

Excellent radio for the price

I bought this radio so I can use my iPod and iPhone in my 2004 Chevy 2500HD Truck that didn't have a USB or auxiliary port. Crutchfield told me that this wAs a fix for my truck and they were right. The sound quality is excellent and the radio is easy to use. I do recommend that you buy for the extra mounting face plate for the radio install .

Great Sound, Function and East to Install

Ordered this stereo to replace the factory GM stereo. My order was shipped quickly and everything I needed was there. Super east to install with all of the guides and information as well as other component parts. Would be a good stereo for any replacement. The iPhone or iPod dock is great to have, I can keep it close by now and it's easy to see while driving when needed.

Pros:Easy to install. Sound is good. Lots of good options on the stereo.

Dual XDMA6510

I am amazed at the quality of sound that this inexpensive system provides. I installed it myself in an older Volvo 850, which came stock with 8 speakers. Not only does this push all 8 speakers, but it sounds awesome. My sons and I are amazed at what we got for the price. The iPod feather is easy to use too!

They do it all

Crutchfield makes it flawless to install a quality product at a quality price.

Pros:The installation with the exact harness required was so easy. Simply color for color wiring took me perhaps an hour from box to using the product. A box of color crayons could not be easier. This is the second of these units I have installed now I have them in both of my cars.

Great value and performance

I've installed for years and this install was the quickest and easiest. With all accessories provided by crutchfield I installed this stereo in 23 minutes. Sound quality was 100 percent better than stock and the accessories offered allowed me to use my iPod, and input my smartphone via aux input. This allows me to play all my stored music on iTunes and even stream pandora through my smartphone. The 60 watts by 4 channels is one of the heist on the market for head units and immediately made a difference in my ride. This unit pushes my 6x9 Rockford fosgates and my 6.5 Polk audio speakers to the brink of clipping out. P

Pros:Value for price, aux capability, this unit has everything higher priced units have, but it's MOSFET 60x4 amp is the highest on the market especially for the price of 72.99$

Cons:Has everything but blue tooth and a built in media program such as pandora, of note these items can be accessed and provided via aux connection from a smartphone.

DUAL XDMA6510

The installation kit and radio unit were a snap to install. The set up works very well and looks cool in my old Subaru. It gives the car a new and fresh upgrade. I would recommend this system to anyone that wants a relatively inexpensive but yet very good sounding audio system.

Pros:The system looks and sounds great for the money. It is a relatively inexpensive upgrade to an old car. I wish that I had done it a few years ago. The installation kit was very easy to install.

Cons:The wiring harness took a little bit of time to set up correctly. That could be because of the small print on the wires.

Great stereo

I have not bought a new car stereo in years; and this Dual car stereo with IPhone USB cable plug in is a great option. Not only can you play your own music from your Iphone; but it also charges your Iphone at the same time. It's controls are easy to figure out unlike your smartphone that took awhile to figure out when new.

Dual XDMA6510

The radio works great, so easy to install with the kit and instructions. Unfortunately for me, but fortunately for Crutchfield I order speakers a couple of days later as the originals were incapable to take advantage of the radios output!

Dual XDMA6510

I bought one, liked it so much, I purchased another. Sound and quality is really good for the price. Easy to install. The ipod holder is really convenient and the front accessory ports are great. Nice illumination and easy to use the buttons. I would recommend this unit.

Pros:Easy to install especially with accessory kit. The trim kit for specifically for your vehicle is excellent.

Cons:I installed this unit in a 1995 saturn. When the volume was turned way up the unit lost all power. The radio fuse was fine. After researching I learned that some aftermarket units additionally rely on the fuse for the chime which has a 5 amp fuse. I replaced it with a 7.5 amp and it seem to be working fine.

Dual XDMA6510 in 2000 GMC Sierra

While this unit is easy to operate, plays CDs, drives the operation of your iPod, and can play music from a thumb drive, the coolest feature was the holder for your iPod/MP3 player. I expected some cheap plastic thing that glued onto my dash, or attached to a air vent. Instead the holder is an integral part of the unit. It's functional and looks great. This unit also made my stock speakers come to life. The sounds quality is exceptional. Thinking of getting this unit for my RV, as the include remote control for this unit would be quite useful in an RV to drive your music from the RV's kitchen table.

Pros:Easy to use interface - did not need to read the manual! Sound quality exceeded my expectations.

Exceeded my expectations

This cd player works better than I expected. Given the price of the unit I would have expected a lower build quality, less sound output and clarity, and an overall lack of design. However, I am glad to write that this is not the case. This thing feels as sturdy as many of the higher priced units I have purchased in the past and it certainly puts out a lot of clear sound. Matched up with the appropriate speakers and you can have some cranking music. Yes, it is lacking in a lot of the fancy stuff higher priced units have (blue tooth, XM radio, etc.) but what it does have it does well. I also liked how it comes packaged with a phone mount - something I would have never thought to use if it were not included. Super easy install and super sleek look once finished. Really have nothing to complain about.

Works great

Love it! Easy to install. Great value. Was looking for an inexpensive unit to put in my old car & this is it. Haven't used the CD player yet but the USB & front aux. ports work great. Didn't realize that the IPod mount needed to be attached to the unit BEFORE putting the player in to the car. Not worth pulling it out to redo it.

This receiver would be a great value if not for the poor FM reception. I thought the poor reception was due to the antenna in my car is embedded in the windshield. Well, it was months before I decided to install a fender mount antenna. I discovered the fault was with the receiver. Antenna booster did not help either. If I had discovered this sooner, it would be going back to Crutchfield.

This radio is amazing. It easy to use and sound beautiful. Iv always gone with a dual system and they never failed me. It a great buy and at a good price. Id recommend to anyone who is looking for a great radio

Dual Did It Right

Bought two of these - one for my truck and one for my wife's car. Great sound and ease of use.....we can actually use the USB port to charge our cell phones! I highly recommend this unit for anyone looking for a solid no-frills-but- nice features receiver.

Dual Radio

great radio for the price. Fits in my 75 Nova even though Crutchfield said it wouldn't. It was easy to install. I like the AUX jack in the front. I can plug my Zune into it and play all the music I enjoy. The Ipod holder works with the Zune also. I would definitely buy a second one if the need arose.

Cons:did not find anything pertaining to install of Ipod holder mount. Put the mount on the radio and stumbled onto what it was for while browsing Crutchfield web site.

Cons:i would like to see the display show the frequency, time, band, and preset(if applicable) at the same time while in tuner mode; while in disc or usb mode the frequency would be change to track of tracks and name(if applicable)

Excellent value, more than I expected for price

Typical Crutchfield excellent wiring adapters & installation parts; wiring took 10 minutes (overly anal with solder & heatshrink) and installation would have taken 10 minutes except Ford F-150 dash orifice is NOT DIN. Fortunately it is a plastic dash opening so rasping out the 1/16" of plastic took an extra 5 minutes with multiple test fits. Once the opening accepts the DIN sleeve, installation completes in about 90 seconds and you are live once you reconnect the battery. One of the easiest retrofits I have done in 40 years. Receiver is excellent quality for the functions I have used, so far just AM/FM and the front-panel USB port means I can just plug in a flash drive and not even deal with my MP3 player. Haven't even fed a CD into the unit yet but will this week. Sound quality is excellent with stock Ford speakers but may consider a subwoofer behind the seat (regular cab) now that I have something to drive it. Just needs a warning note if you are putting it into an old old vehicle. Not many people will. I love it!

Good value, faceplate is stubborn

Not bad for a super-budget unit. Sounds decent for the bucks, and the iPod controls work fine. Only real issue is the faceplate - it's a pain to get off. Pop the button and the side loosend - then wrestle with it till you get it loose. Feels very much like something will eventually break. After years of removable plates, is it that hard to design one that works like all the others?

Great for the money

I bought this to upgrade my '98 ford escort zx2's system. The pros and cons pretty much sum up my review.

Pros:Good (possibly the best) value for the price due to a huge amount of features
Sound quality is fairly good, except for the fm radio
Plenty of inputs.
Included ipod/iphone mount
Plenty of features. The ones that stood out to me are:
-Adjustable volume for the rear sub output
-Adjustable volume for each input

Cons:Takes way too long to read my iphone
FM Radio tuner is next to worthless, and worse than the radio that came stock with my escort
Buttons feel flimsy at times, but most of the time it's ok
Relatively limited equalizer options.
Fairly finicky controls, but you can get used to them
Limited support for digital media files on usb drives(mp3 and wma only)

So far seems like a really nice item

For the price I don't think you can beat this receiver. My old deck had a fold down faceplate, which I hated, so I really like the faceplate on this receiver. The FM reception is good, the controls and remote are easy to use, CDs and USB devices work very well with great sound and clarity, and as usual Crutchfield supplies everything one needs for an easy install.

Pros:Good FM reception. Non-fold-down detachable faceplate. USB and AUX inputs. Easy to use controls and remote. Great sound and clarity
